Pros and cons

Document360 is a great software to help increase your knowledge and the great part is that it is very inexpensive. I would suggest everyone to at least try it once.
I like that the Document 360 team is very open to feature requests and suggestions on how to improve their product. They have a great support system as well.
Document360 offers a great standalone help center that integrates with most other tools. They're continually improving their offering.
Formatting, bullets, spacing, we struggle through this with each article we create.
It can be hard to set up with other applications we use often.
Because it is a complete application, the setup sometimes can be a little scary.

The obvious choice for effortless knowledge base design and management

Reviewed a year ago

After extensive research for a knowledge base to support our software product, we unanimously landed on Document360. I spent over two months predominately testing Paligo, MadCap Flare, and Document360. Even though the learning curve isn't steep, the product is robust enough to cover more than just content design and management. The Document350 team tirelessly supports their product in a professional and friendly manner. They are always available to help with even the smallest issue.

Pros

These features are most impactful; 1. Ease of use; 2. Translation; 3. Workflows; 4. Version control; 5. Categorization; 6. Content reuse; 7. Help widget; 8. Technical support; 9. Cost; 10. File base management for PDFs, Word docs, video tutorials, etc. Also, seamless integration with our software.

Cons

We discovered an API security key issue with the Knowlege Base Assistant, but the issue we had is being resolved.

Great Knowledge Base Product!

Reviewed a year ago

For a long time, our end-user documentation was located on SharePoint and over the years became very outdated and unorganized. Document360 has changed the way we design, organize, and maintain all of our end-user documentation for our technology applications at a reasonable price. If you are looking for a true Knowledge Base solution to solve a similar issue, I recommend Document360.

Pros

Document360 provides a Knowledge Base SaaS that is robust, but easy to use and maintain. The content tools feature(s) allows for you to design and create your documentation at a macro level, making the micro editing of that documentation very smooth. SSO and Security Permissions make for a more secure environment and analytics dashboards provide insights into your environment, documentation, and potential knowledge gaps.

Cons

Like any SaaS, there are occasionally bugs you are likely to run into with Document360. With that being said, Document360 has a support system in place to help navigate you through those issues.

Good balance between robustness and ease-of-use.

Reviewed a year ago

Overall the Document360 publishing process is decent and the tool is user friendly.

Pros

Easy to use, yet the suite of publishing and admin tools is comprehensive.

Cons

The document review process with stakeholders could be aided by having a way to share a link to an unpublished document. Currently, there is no way for team members to see an article preview without also having an account, so we must resort to either publishing the document prematurely or generating a PDF, which is not ideal. Technical Support for specific issues can be hit and miss at times.

Stress-free content development!

Reviewed 4 months ago

I am extremely happy with Document360. We are transitioning from Zendesk and all criticisms of this decision have been easily averted with the quality of Document360.

Pros

Document360 is designed for content development. It is intuitive to use and customize.

Cons

There are a few (though not critical) problems with the code view tool. For example, using bullets within an ordered list is quirky.

So far so good

Reviewed a month ago

Overall the customer support has been excellent and using Doc360 has been easy/intuitive and at times positively surprising.

Pros

Starting and progressively organizing information while creating a visual hierarchy has been easy. The interface has been fairly intuitive for me and the search feature is proving helpful.

Cons

I've had a bit of difficulty with formatting when creating a new article by copying and pasting from an existing article, but I think this is in the process of being fixed.

Best Knowledge Base Product on the market - Hands down!!!!

Reviewed 2 years ago

We tested 7 different platforms and Document 360 was the clear winner. It offered free access for readers. There were no dubious clauses about character limits r page lengths. It was also able to do the extra things that we needed such as adding images to tables, embed Streams videos, scale images. the spelling feature is always active, and it is easy to justify images and text in tables (left, right,...

Excellent customer service. Technicians are well informed. This product ticks so many boxes. Option to create webpage landing site for readers – Easily displays: most read pages, recently modified, new pages Page auditing: Including tagging, version history, comments, revisions, broken links, likes, dislikes (accessible to all authors with minimal fuss)Embedding Streams videos also works well.

Cons

It will copy across legacy HTML (almost too accurately) so it is important to create a workflow to manage the migration of old content across if you are moving from a wiki platform (such as SharePoint) to this product. They do however have a team that can assist with the migration process and their customer service is world class. It would be nice if there could be some work done to allow some legacy html code to be automatically dropped during the migration process. It would be great if the Document 360 Search feature could extend across knowledge base version (as an additional filtering option). I believe this may be on their road map plans.

Useful, easy to use, good value, friendly support

Reviewed 2 years ago

We have been able to update our Knowledgebase to provide better information to our customers, in a more attractive format, at a reasonable cost. We are very satisfied with their service.

Pros

We migrated from a legacy Knowledgebase platform that was old and out-of-date, and have been very pleased with our choice. The Document360 people have always been extremely helpful and friendly, and they respond quickly to support requests. The layout and features of the Knowledgebase are easy to understand and work with, and our customers are able to find information easily via search. Document360 regularly adds upgrades to its product while keeping prices very reasonable.

Cons

They have an open tracker for feature requests, and they are not very quick about responding to those.

One-stop Solution for all your Documentation

Reviewed a year ago

Doc360 provides more editor features when compared to other modern-day doc tools. Easy-to-use which makes it more writer-friendly. A homepage builder with customization is an added benefit.

Pros

It is one of the best writer-friendly tools in the market. Doc360 gave us the platform to build our documentation from scratch. It comes with a lot of cool features and a home page builder with customization which makes the tool unique.

Cons

Nothing much about the tool. But when it comes to data migration, we may lose media files. If possible, doc360 can come up with an option to point data to our own servers.

Excellent experience overall. I was able to hit the ground running and port our documentation to the Document360 platform very quickly.

Pros

Zero-effort setup with no need for any technical background. Highly functional, easy and convenient editing capabilities. Flexible, customizable portal. Very responsive and helpful customer support.

Cons

Initially, PDF export was not functioning well. After I opened a support ticket, the problem was resolved and now PDF export works great. Other than that, I couldn't find anything wrong with this product.

Strong product for the price

Reviewed 5 months ago
Pros

Document360 made it easy to set up and maintain our private knowledge base. They have most of the features we expected from a SaaS knowledgebase platform and the pricing is very reasonable. It was very important to us to keep our documentation private (available only our SaaS portal users) without having to pay for a license for every reader, and Document360 fit the bill.

Cons

This is SaaS so you're doing everything via a browser, and the admin interface can be slow sometimes, and has a few annoying quirks. This has improved even since I first started using it, but it's not perfect. There are also a few key things I wish I could do via their REST API that are not available yet. Fortunately the Document360 team do actively engage with their customers' feature requests and they maitain an up-to-date customer-facing product development pipeline, so you can see what features and improvements are coming.

Great software for writing documentation

Reviewed 2 years ago

Documentation is very easily accessible to the readers and colleagues who are working on the documentation can collaborate all the time, before making it public.

Pros

User friendly software with a very nice article’s display including Table of Contents and Related Articles. I am happy with the team/customer service, they offer support and react very fast to my suggestions and requests which can be very easily documented in their support system. I am impressed by the frequent/monthly releases that include many new features, enhancements, and improvements.

Cons

So far I have no cons, before I had one but this is already fixed/enabled (I was not able to write in categories, they were considered as folders. Now I have the option to select the type for the category and page allows me to write content).

Easy to use, yet powerful, and the readers love it!

Reviewed 10 months ago

I enjoy creating documentation with Document360. Even more so, I enjoy to see how the readers enjoy using it - we have had so my compliments from readers, since we started using Document360!

Pros

Document360 is very easy to use - the editing options are easy, yet very powerful (think clever tables, video embedding, etc.). I love the fact that you can import word documents and that it can automatically split it up into smaller articles. It is also fantastic that we can have multiple KB versions (to align with all our software versions). The organization of the articles is also really important for us and it is much better than most other products that we evaluated: With document360 you can create structures and go very deep in terms of layers. The readers are, in turn, especially happy with the search functionality, as well as the automatically generated table of content, which tracks where in the article you are.

Cons

Although SSO is possible, it cannot be implemented for multiple domains. This is something we still miss.

Great Knowledge base platform

Reviewed 2 years ago

It has been a great tool for our business. Our readers have been able to quickly access material on troubleshooting and answers to their questions quickly.

Pros

Ease to use. Customer support is great in making sure issues are addressed and customer relations keep me updated with any updated features coming to the platform. Ability to present our material to a vast amount of readers quickly.

Cons

At the moment projects are divided between public and private though there seems to be something on the roadmap to have it part of one project. Sometimes a formatted word document doesn't keep its format when uploading through the WYSIWYG editor such as bullet points become numbered lists but a quick review and button changes that.

Alternative for DITA for small to mid tier organizations

Reviewed 9 months ago

As I'm moving to a new org, I'm seeing what I can do to take Document360 along with me.

Pros

Document360 has been a breath of fresh air for me after seeing organizations taking it too far with DITA. I will applaud the tool for its simple UI-just MS Word-like and very easy to use! Its powerful Search funtionality is itself enough to make you an instant fan of the platform. Not sure about their backend SEO, but I make use of the slug, short description, and H2 & H3 headings and keywords to optimize my content.

Cons

Experience with Tables can be improved, but I'm told by their Customer Servicing team that some enhancements are on the way.

Doc360 is great for process documentation

Reviewed 2 months ago

Overall, we've been able to capture our process documentation and utilize it for both internal and customer-facing knowledge bases.

Pros

Uploading process documentation is straightforward. Can even be copy/pasted from Word in a pinch. Also, we are currently exploring some exciting code block features that may enable us to make our content multimodal, and more like an LMS.

Cons

Occasional formatting issues do arise, such as when headings result in underlines in the TOC. But customer service is extremely prompt.
